Courses of Study.
In order to meet the wants of a larger class of Students, nine regular Courses
of Study are provided, namely: The Normal English, Belles Lettres, Science aiul
Literature, Classical, Practical Science, College Preparatory, Art, Music and
Business. Students may adopt any of these Courses exclusively, or may select
such studies from them as they desire, subject to the approval of the Faculty.
The Normal English is designed to meet the increasing demand for teachers
in our Common Schools, and is heartily commended to young ladies and gentle-
men who desire thorough instruction and drill in the English branches.
The Belles Lettres Course is especially arranged to accommodate young ladies
who may wish to omit the Higher Mathematics beyond Elementary Algebra and
Geometry. It thus affords opportunity to connect studies in Music and Art with
a well-selected Course in Literature and Science.
The Course in Science and Literature is intended to give wider culture and
more thorough mental discipline. It differs from the Classical Course mainly in
that it omits the Greek Language entirely, and makes Latin elective with German
or French during the first two years. Before entering upon this Course, the
Student must be thoroughly acquainted with the Common English branches.
The Classical Course is much more extensive than is ordinarily pursued at
Seminaries. It will compare favorably with the curriculum adopted by our best
institutions of learning. We offer it with entire confidence to young men who
are preparing for professional life, and also to young ladies who aspire to superior
intellectual culture. The preparation for this Course is a thorough knowledge of
the studies embraced in the Academic Course.
The Practical Science Course covers the required preparation for admission to
schools of Technology and to Industrial Courses in our best Universities and
Colleges. However, it is specially arranged to meet the increasing demand for
scientific and literary instruction by those who contemplate an Academic training.
As a preparation for assured success in industrial occupations we heartily com-
mend it.
The College Preparatory Course is arranged for those who desire thorough
instruction and systematic drill in all branches requisite for admission to our best
Colleges and Universities. We commend it especially to parents who wish to
place their children under the watchful care of experienced teachers, while they
receive the literary culture of a high grade institution of learning and enjoy the
social advantages of a well-regulated Christian home.

ADVANTAGES.
This department offers all the opportunities for general culture affoi Jed
Students in other departments, assured by well conducted literary societies, lect-
ures, large libraries, association with experienced teachers, and the refining
influences of a Christian home.
ADMISSION.
Students may enter this department at any time in the Academic year, a fair
knowledge of the English branches being the only requisite.
METHODS OF INSTRUCTION.
The instruction in the Primary Department is based on the inductive and ob-
jective methods, classes having objects presented which are studied analytically.
Julia McNair Wright's Nature Readers have been introduced, where life is seen
in its natural development. Practical application of the "natural method" and
the facts obtained from the Readers is made in conversational lessons. The lan-
guage lessons embrace Memory Lessons, Dictation Exercises, Stories read for
Reproduction, Exercises in Letter Writing, Word Pictures and Composition
Writing. Especial attention is given to Arithmetic and the analysis of problems.
History and Geography are taught with the aid of maps, books of reference and
the best text-books. Information Lessons, or elementary science studies in Natural
History, teach the classes to observe and to make cureful note of the objects of
the animal, plant and mineral kingdoms. The method of study consists chiefly
in examination of leaves, rocks and insects. The Prang Course of Form Study
and Drawing, including a series of exercises with suitable methods, is studied.
During the present year instruction in a systematic course of Voice Culture has
been given to the pupils of this department by the teacher of Vocal Music.
^ In Elementary Arithmetic, Grammar and Geography, the catechetical method
IS largely employed, but in Higher English the same course is adopted which
prevails in the more advanced branches of study. The pupil is taught to study
the text-book by topics rather than by sentences or paragraphs, and encoura-ed
m the lecture room to give the substance of what he has learned, in his own
language. In this manner, while he is adding to his store of knowledge he is
enlarging his vocabulary, and while he is evolving principles and acquiring facts
he IS mcreasing his power of expression, and thus unconsciously, it may be but
nevertheless surely, he lays the foundations of an easy and concise style of com-
position.
/
In English Literature, the origin of the English language and the growth of
the literature are carefully traced. In this work the most interesting facts in the
lives of the best authors and their principal productions are brought under review.
Instruction in Mental Science covers the second and third terms of the Junior
year. It embodies definitions of the mental faculties, and careful analvses of in-
tellectual processes, with a brief history of the science, the main purpose being
to stimulate the Student to think and investigate for himself
Etliios, Logic and Political Economy are taught in the Senior year. Text-
books are used and daily recitations are required. Class inquiries and discussions
are encouraged, and familiar lectures are given from time to time by the teacher.
NATURAL SCIENCE.
In the department of Natural Science, the underlying aim is to teach the
Student to think and observe for himself, and at the same time to give him such
a fund of practical knowledge as will fit him for the active duties of life. In all
the branches the text book is used as a means to gain a knowledge of topics rather
than to be studied as an end in itself, and as far as possible the Student is led to
the study of the objects themselves. No pains are spared to cultivate habits of
clear, accurate and systematic thought and expression.
Geology is taken during the first term of the Senior year. A practical
knowledge of the common rock^ and minerals is acquired, and excursions are
made to quarries and regions which illustrate various geological formations.
Durmg the past year the class made surveys of the Lower Helderberg limestone
quarries ^ast of this city, the Chemung building stone quarries on the north, a
section through North Bald Eagle Mountain into Mosquito Valley, comprising
four members of the Silurian, and colored sections drawn to a scale were made of
each place visited. Each Student made a written report and collected character-
istic specimens and fossils, and constructed of these specimens, dressed down and
mounted in plaster of paris, a model representing an ideal arrangement of the
seven dififerent geological formations, fossil-bearing, admirably presented to view
by outcrops within a few miles of the Seminary.
Zoology occupies the first term of the Senior year. The work, during the
first half of the term, consists of acquiring a knowledge of the structure of the
principal classes of the several sub-kingdoms, while during the last half the com-
parative anatomy and physiology of the animal kingdom is taken up, and the
Student is led to appreciate the finely graded relationship that exists between the
classes. Orton^s text-book is used, and as much laboratory work is introduced as
is practicable. This year the class studied a clam, lobster, bee, fish, frog and a
cat, observing closely the physiology of the circulation and respiration in the last
subject, and dissecting an alcoholic specimen of the brain.
Physics embraces two terms of the Junior year. Mechanics, Sound and Heat
are taken in the Fall term; and Optics, Electricity and Magnetism in the Winter.
The principles and laws are illustrated as far as practicable bv apparatus. The
relation between the different branches is held strongly before the mind, and prac-
tical questions, drawn from every-day life, are constantly brought forward to teach
the Student to apply the principles learned in the text-book. The subject of
50
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY.
Electricity is presented by a series of experiments and lectures, on which full
notes are made by each Student.
In Botany, after a few weeks of work in Gray's School and Field Book, the
Student goes directly to the plant, analysis occupying the remainder of the term.
An herbarium is collected and prepared by each member of the class.
Chemistry occupies the second and third terms of the Senior year. I 'ih ni-
the Spring term there is also elective work in Analytical Cliemistrv. The ciitmical
laboratory has been fitted up this year and is fullv equipped with apparatus nnd
chemicals for advanced technical work. The room is furnished wii], iinlividnil
tables, each supplied with gas, Bunsen's burner, ring stand, water, case with full set
of reagents, and all necessary apparatus for illustrative experiment and qualitative
- analysis. There is also a complete set of apparatus for volumetric and gravimetric
analysis and assaying. In the regular work Shepherd's Chemistry is used. Each
Student keeping full notes on the experiments which are performed individually,
becomes thoroughly familiar with chemicals and manipulations. In the Spring
term mineralogy is taken up in the laboratory work, and the latter part of the term
is devoted to the general principles of Organic Chemistry. In the analytical work
Fenton and Fleischer are used as reference books. Qualitative analyses of alloys
and commercial articles are made, after which quantitative analysis, both volu-
metric and gravimetric, is taken up. Estimation of ores by these processes and
by assaying, and analyses of milk, sugars, and mineral waters are made.
During the last year a dark-room has been built and furnished with a complete
photographic outfit, and the advanced scientific students are given an opportunity
to acquire a practical knowledge of the art of photography.
Lectures on subjects of interest to the department are given from time to time,
illustrated by stereoscopic views projected by a new oxy-hydrogen light.
ANCIENT LANGUAG-ES.
In the departments of Greek and Latin, scrupulous attention is given to the
grammatical structure of these languages, their relation to English, the illustration
and application of principles, accurate translation, and to the literary significance
of each author studied. Mythology and Classical Geography are studied in the
Senior year. It is aimed to give to the classics by these means their proper place
as an aid to expression, to a thorough knowledge of our own language and to the
pursuit of other languages, as well as to afford the usual mental discipline. Care-
ful attention is also given to those preparing for college or for professional study.
MODERN LANGUAGES.
During first year in German, classes complete Otis' Elementary Grammar,
(edition of 1890), as far as the subject of Syntax, with study of Irregular Verbs
committing to memory all conversations, proverbs and selections. Exercises are
prepared in German script with careful attention to the idiom of the language.
Stern's vStudien und Plaudereien is used as the basis of conversation lessons and
during Spring, one of the works mentioned under list of text-books is read. In
second year Syntax of Otis' Grammar is completed, with frequent dictation exer-
cises. Schrakamp's Erziihlungen aus der Deutschen Geschichte, or its equivalent
^ r%

is studied, much of text being memorized. Several standard novelettes are used
for acquiring facility in sight reading. Meissner's German Conversation is used
daily. The Spring term is given to a study of Schiller's Works.
During the first two terms in French, PeiflTer's Progressive French Drill-Book
is used, many short extracts l>eing committed to memory. In the Spring term
there is a study of Keetel's Elementary Grammar through the subject of Irregular
Verbs, careful attention being given, in the preparation of all exercises, to the
idiom of the language. Also some work mentioned under text-books is read, in
second year grammatical study is completed, conversational exercises are con-
tinued, and some French classic or historical work is made the basis of advanced
studv.
Literary exercises and historical work are given frequently in both languages
throughout the course, with object, history and geography lessons based upon the
best of charts and maps Standard selections are frequently memorized, and a
study of synonyms is also made.
MATHEMATICS.
The Course in Mathematics is coextensive with that in the majority of our
best colleges. Although the study is considered as chiefly disciplinary, the aim
throughout the Course is to acquaint the Student with the instruments in most
familiar use by the practical scientists and mathematicians of the day, as well as
to strengthen his mental faculties and increase his logical acumen. At the com-
mencement of each subject, a familiar lecture is given on its history and practical
utility.
Algebra is begun, the Student being led slowly through the rudiments, and made
to review the fundamentals daily. After two terms spent in studying the elements,
the University Algebra is taken up at the Calculus of Radicals, and continued
through Quadratics, Proportions, Permutations and Combinations, Progressions,
Identical Equations, Decomposition of Fractions, Residual Formula, Newton's
Binomial Theorem, Method of Indeterminate Coefficients, Reversion of Series,
Logarithms, Rule of Des Cartes, Cardan's vSolutionof Cubic Equations, and Sturm's
Theorem. The aim of the instruction in advanced Algebra is to free the Student
from his|previous dependence upon the text-book, and to cultivate ability and
taste for original mathematical work. Great stress is laid upon mathematical
generalization and the concise demonstration of }>rinciples.
The Course in Geometry covere seven books, embracing both the Plane and
Solid Geometry. The demonstrations are partly oral and partly written, the
written exercises being deemed a valuable aid to the cultivation of accuracy of
thought and expression. Plane Trigonometry is taken entire, and the class is
exercised in the solution of practical problems. In surveying, the Theory and
Practice are combined. The class is conveniently divided, and each division in
turn is taken by the teacher into the field for practical work. Plots of the sur-
veys made are drawn, and, together with the com[)utations, are submitted to the
teacher for inspection.
One term is spent in Analytical Geometry, completing the Cartesian Method
of Co-ordinates, the Method of Polar Co-ordinates, and the Transformation of Co-
52

ordinates. To Calculus two terms are given, covering, in the Differential Calculus,
the Diflferentiation of Functions of a Single Variable, Maclaurin's and Taylor's
Theorems, together with the deduction of the Binomial Theorem and the Theory
of Logarithms, the Evaluation of Indeterminate Forms, and the Maxima and
Minima of Functions of a Single Variable; and in the Integral Calculus, the
Integration of all the Elementary Forms.
HISTORY AND RHE^roRIC.
In the study of History, the object is to familiarize the Student with the main
facts and principles, thus forming a foimdation on which to build by future read-
ing and investigation. To this end the text-book is thoroughly studied in con-
nection with a Manual of Classical Antiquities and an Atlas, while at the same
time the wStudent is encouraged to consult other authorities and bring in additional
matter bearing on the subject. Recitation is by the analytical and topical methods.
Special attention is given to instruction in Rhetoric, on account of its great
value to the Student. The principles of good writing are studied and analyzed
with a view to their practical application.
During the last term much of the time is devoted to original productions in

These productions are read before the class, where general criticisms are offered,
after which they are handed to the teacher for more careful correction.

General Information.
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY
Is an institution of high grade, with ample facihties for giving
young ladies and gentlemen a superior education. It is organized
upon the plans which have been approved by long experience,
_and adopted by the best schools in this country, embracing all
modern appliances in means and methods of instruction. It was
founded in 1848, and is regularly chartered by the Legislature of
the State of Pennsylvania, and authorized to confer degrees upon
those who complete the prescribed Courses of Study.
The Seminary is under the patronage of the Central Pennsyl-
vania Conference, being owned and practically managed by the
Preachers' Aid Society. As this investment was rather to pro-
mote the important work of higher Christian education than to
make money, the paramount purpose is to combine thorough
instruction and careful moral training with the comforts of a good
home, at the lowest possible rates.
LOCATION.
Williamsport is one of the most beautiful and healthful places
in the State. It has never been subject to epidemics of any kind.
Many coming to the school in poor health have returned fully
restored. The city is situated on the West Branch of the Sus-
quehanna River, has a population of thirty thousand, is widely
known for its intelligence, its enterprise, the taste displayed in the
character of its public buildings and private residences, and the
moral appliances with which it is furnished. In small towns and
villages the facilities for culture — intellectual as well as aesthetic
and moral — are generally limited, rarely reaching beyond the
institution itself, and hence student life must become monotonous,
lacking the inspiration which a larger place with wider opportu-
nities affords. Thirty-six churches, an active temperance organi-
zation, and a branch of the Young Men's Christian Association,
embracing many of the most earnest Christians in the community,
/
/
with a large library free to all, and accessible at all times, indicate
some of the religious influences brought to bear upon the young
in Williamsport.
BUILDINGS.
The buildings occupy an eminence overlooking the city, and
are surrounded by beautiful shade trees, while the grounds contain
five acres, affording ample room for exercise and play. They are
brick, heated by steam, provided with fire escapes, and supplied
throughout with pure mountain water.
The buildings are lighted throughout with electrical incandes-
cent light. The system adopted embodies the latest improvements
in generating and utilizing electricity for illuminating purposes,
and insures entire safety from fire or shock, so that the wires may
be handled without danger. The value of an illuminant which,
consuming no oxygen, leaves the air perfectly pure and at the
same time furnishes abundant light, cannot be over-estimated.
The main edifice, recently rebuilt and improved, compares
favorably with the best school buildings in the country, and the
new Chapel is the most attractive public hall in the city.
Both departments are furnished with bath rooms and all modern
appliances for comfort, and in the entire arrangement of the build-
ings great care has been taken for the convenience and health of
the occupants.
The ladies' apartments are entirely separate from the others,
and there is no association of the sexes but in the presence of their
instructors. The happy influence, mutually exerted, in their slight
association in the recitation room, at the table, and in the public
exercises in the Chapel, is to be seen in the cultivation of a cheer-
ful and animated disposition, in the formation of good habits and
manners, in ardent devotion to study, and in the attainment of
high moral character. These, with many other valuable results,
have established the fact that the best plan for a school is, accord-
ing to the evident design of Providence in the constitution of
society, on the basis of a well-regulated Christian family. The
members of the Faculty live in the buildings eat at the same tables^
and have constant oversight of all the students.

PHYSICAL HEALTH.
The value of physical culture is recognized. A large Campus
with very fine ball and lawn tennis grounds for the gentlemen
and lawn tennis court for the ladies furnishes stimulus and
opportunity for outdoor athletic sports.
A Gymnasium, forty by sixty feet, supplied with the best
modern appliances for physical culture, is maintained for the use
of the students, under proper regulations, for which fifty cents
per term is charged. All young men, not physically incapacitated
may be required to take systematic exercise in the Gymnasium
from two to three hours per week. They will provide themselves
with an appropriate gymnasium suit, including shoes.
Suitable exercise is provided for the ladies in calisthenics and
light gymnastics, under the direction of a competent teacher
All the ladies are required to participate in these exercises, unless
excused upon a physician's certificate.
Lectures on health will also be given from time to time, by an
eminent physician.
ROOMS AND FURNITURE.
The rooms are larger than in most boarding schools, the ladies'
being i6x 13 feet and the gentlemen's 20x91^ feet. ^ They are
all fiirnished with bedstead, mattress, table, chairs, wardrobe
wash-stand and crockery; the ladies' with bed-springs and dress-
mg-bureau, ^;^^ // ^^^,>^^, any room will be entirely furnished-
but students may provide their own sheets (for double beds)'
pillows, pillow cases, blankets, counterpanes, carpets and mirrors^
and thus lessen the expense.

We desire to emphasize this statement, because some schools,
whose advertised rates are higher than ours, increase the expenses
still more by numerous ''extras."
I®" We ask those who are seeking education for themselves,
and parents who contemplate sending their children to a board-
ing school, to carefully note the fact that we furnish everything
embraced in a thoroughly equipped school, with all the comforts
of a good home, including a large, airy and completely furnished
room, in a beautiful and healthful location, at the low rate of
^225.40 per year, in courses of study which prepare the student
for business, for professional life, or for the lower or higher classes
in college; or, if they prefer to furnish their own rooms with bed
clothes, mirrors and carpet, for ^21240.
Persons applying for rooms will please state whether they wish
them furnished entirely or in part.

DISCIPLINE.
The discipline is firm, but mild and impartial. While every
encouragement will be given to the orderly and studious, and due
allowance be made for youthful indiscretion, yet the lawless and
refractory cannot long remain among us.
APPARATUS.
The Scientific Department is furnished with very complete
outfits of Physical and Chemical Apparatus. The Museum con-
tains a large number of rare and valuable specimens, including a
fine collection of Minerals and Zoological and Physiological
specimens. Among recent additions are the following:
In the Museum —
Alcoholic specimens of the Human Heart, Brain Stomach,
Kidneys and Intestines.
Bock Steger Models of Ear, Eye, Larynx, Lungs, Head and Brain.
A series of Drill Cores, a collection of different Woods in the
form of blocks, showing bark, grain and finished surface, and a
collection of Polished Granite specimens.
In Physical Apparatus —
A Holtz Machine, Gold Leaf Electroscopes, Pith Ball p:iectro-
scopes, Ruhmkorff Coil, Morse Key and Register, a model Tele-
graphing Machine, Queen's superior Air Pump, two large Globes,
Still, furnishing distilled water for all work in Chemistry, Oxy-
hydrogen Light with all accessories, and a Queen's Excelsior
Lantern.
In Chemical Apparatus —
Pair delicate Balances sensitive to one milligram, Assay Fur-
nace, full set of Pipetts, Buretts and Graduates for Volumetric
Analysis.
Rev. John A. DeMoyer and Rev. John Z. Lloyd, of the Cen-
tral Pennsylvania Conference, have made valuable contributions to
our Reference Library.
POST-GRADUATE WORK.
We are prepared to do post-graduate work in Modern Lan-
guages, Music, Art, Chemistry and Physics.
60
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY.
MERIT AND DEMERIT.
A daily record is kept of all the exercises of the School, from
which record the students will be graded. A record of demerits
is also kept. Tardiness, unexcused absences from required exer-
cises, and all disorderly conduct, will subject the student to demerit
marks. Such marks bring a private reproof before the Faculty,
a public reprimand before the whole school, and may send the
offender away. Sessional reports are sent to parents.
RELIGIOUS CHARACTER.
Dickinson Seminary is not sectarian in any sense, but it is
positively and emphatically Christian in its administration and
work. By combining practical Christian teaching with thorough
intellectual training, under the personal supervision of Christian
men and women, especially qualified by education and experience,
the School has established a reputation among literary institutions
and won the confidence of the public in a degree of which its
friends and patrons may be justly proud.
RELIGIOUS SERVICES.
Every boarding student is required to attend religious services
in the Chapel daily, as well as public worship morning and even-
ing every Sabbath, at such place as parents or guardians may desig-
nate^ the President assenting, unless excused.
A Bible reading, conducted by the President, will be substi-
tuted for the evening service as often as may be deemed proper.
N. B. — Each student must be supplied with a Bible, to be read,
without note or sectarian comment, in the services of the Chapel.
The whole school read in concert.
To promote the spirit of worship, we advise each student to
procure the Hymnal of the Methodist Episcopal Church, which
is used in the Chapel services.
A general experience meeting is held every Sabbath at half-
past eight A. M., and generally a service of song at six P. M.,
continuing one hour. Also, a prayer meeting for the ladies and
gentlemen on Thursday evenings. Attendance upon these social
services is optional with the students.

RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS.
A Young Woman's Foreign Missionary Society has been in
successful operation for several years. This society acquires and
diffuses missionary intelligence, creates and maintains an interest
in the work of the General Society and prepares its members for
efficient service as centers of Christian influence at their homes
when school days are ended. It has largely contributed to the
education of a missionary for India.
CANDIDATES FOR THE MINISTRY.
A preacher who can, when necessary, conduct the singing in a
prayer meeting and in a revival service acquires a power for good
which cannot otherwise be attained. Indeed, the usefulness of a
preacher is largely augmented by a knowledge of music and
ability to sing. Recognizing this fact, we have arranged to give
weekly lessons in singing and careful instruction in voice culture
to all young men who are preparing to preach, at the nominal
cost of one dollar per term. This provision also includes young
women who are preparing for either home or foreign missionary
work.
STUDENTS OF LIMITED MEANS.
We have organized a system by which a limited number of
students may earn a part of the cost of education.
We now give light employment, not appreciably interfering
with study, to seventeen young men and three young women,
paying from fifteen to thirty per cent, of bills. Applicants for
these positions are enrolled and vacancies are filled in the order of
application, preference being given to those in the School. Ap-
plicants must be recommended by their pastor, or some responsi-
ble person, as worthy of help. No one will be retained who is
not earnest in his studies and faithful to all required duties.
LITERARY EXERCISES.
In addition to class work, public exercises are held in the Semi-
nary Chapel every Friday evening, at which the more advanced
students read essays or deliver original speeches, interspersed with
vocal or instrumental music, furnished by the Music Department.
62
WILLIAMSPORT DICKINSON SEMINARY.
LITERARY SOCIETIES.
There are three flourishing Literary Societies connected with
the Seminary— the Belles Lettres, the Gamma Epsilon and the
Tripartite Union. The first two are in the gentlemen's, and the
last in the ladies' department. Each has a well furnished hall and
a judiciously selected library, aggregating more than two thousand
volumes.
HOME FEATURES.
The Seminary is a boarding school of the highest grade, taking
rank among the very best, with superior appointments and appli-
ances for the health and culture of its students. It is also a well-
ordered home. First of all, the President and his family reside in
the building, forming a part of the school and are always accessi-
ble to all its members. The wife of the President entertains the
Young Woman's Missionary Society once a month, in her apart-
ments, and occasicKially receives the entire school in her parlors,
while in times of sickness she visits the students in their rooms,
giving such suggestions and directions as the experience of a
mother may supply. Again, the members of the Faculty are so
distributed throughout the building as to be readily accessible at
any time for such help as the students may desire outside of the
recitation room. Again, recognizing the value of social culture as
a factor in preparation for a useful life, the President and Faculty
give a formal reception once each term to the whole school in the
Chapel, which for the occasion is transformed into an attractive
drawing room, while weekly informal "socials," continuing from
thirty minutes to an hour, after the public Friday evening enter-
tainments, relieve the monotony of routine work, cultivate a cheer-
ful spirit and meet the natural desire for social pleasures. In
these and all practicable ways an appeal is made to the higher
elements in the nature; mutual interest inspires mutual respect;
opportunity is afforded to study character, and the school becomes
a pleasant and safe Christian home, as well as a place for careful
mental and moral training.

scholarly training in all the departments by teachers of superior
attainments and experience. Besides instruction in connection
with the text-book, lectures illustrated by experiments are given
from time to time.
Students in Music have opportunity to hear distinguished artists,
which is of great advantage in acquiring a correct taste, as also
in enlarging their knowledge. In addition to frequent Organ
Recitals by musicians of recognized ability, eminent musicians
from a distance frequently give concerts to which our Music
pupils are admitted at reduced rates.
SPECIAL LECTURES.
Special lectures in the form of familiar talks will be given each
term by the President. These lectures will cover the discussion
of social ethics, the care of health, how to eat, how to work, how
to play, how to rest, current literature and current events in rela-
tion to school life, with other subjects which may be helpful to
young people who wish to make the most of opportunity.
The President will also give a course of lectures to young men
preparing for the ministry, covering such themes as may be of
value to them as preachers, as pastors and as citizens.
YOUNG LADIES.
Constant and systematic efforts are made looking toward the
general culture of the young ladies committed to our care. The
lady members of the Faculty take personal interest in all things
pertaining to their welfare and are intimately associated with them
in recreation hours.
Every Saturday short lectures are given by the Preceptress to
all young ladies on social culture, literature, art and kindred topics.
During the coming year, in addition to these lectures, the ladies
of the Senior class will meet the Preceptress monthly for purposes
of literary criticism.
TELEGRAPHY.
Among the physical apparatus are several telegraphing instru-
ments, one of which, the gift of Benjamin G. Welch, Superin-
tendent of the Williamsport and North Branch Railroad, is a very

Dunng the year a number of instruments have been placed in
students' and teachers' rooms, affording excellent opportunity for
study and practice to those who desire to fit themselves for prac-
tical work in this growing branch of industry.
TEACHERS.
A Normal Class may be organized during the Fall and Spring
Terms for those who desire to teach. The Course will compre-
_ hend special instruction by Lectures on the Theory and Methods
of Teaching by the President. No extra charge will be made.
SCHOLARSHIPS.
Mr. DeWitt Bodine, of Hughesville, Pa., an alumnus of the
Seminary, has the honor of founding the first full scholarship in
this Institution. It is to be filled from the public schools of
Hughesville by competitive examinations and is designated
The DeWitt Bodine Scholarship.
It pays all expenses of board, tuition, etc., in any regular course
of study.
Who will imitate Mr. Bodine's example? Are there not
generous men and women among our alumni and friends ready to
invest a portion of their wealth where it will be secure and work
for God for ever ? A comparatively small sum will do a large work.
The interest on a thousand dollars, in many instances, will supple-
ment the meager resources of a worthy young man or woman
whom God has given large ability but from whom fortune has
withheld the means to develop it. This is especially true of those
who are called into the ministry or into missionary work. Any
sum will help, and three thousand dollars will found a ministry or
missionary scholarship in this Institution and maintain it per-
petually.
To aid any one who may desire by gift or will to found a
partial or full scholarship to assist worthy young men or women
in preparing for the ministry or mission work, or for any other
useful occupation, forms are appended which may be used :

continues in each case through four years, giving free tuition in
any degree course.
OUTFIT.
The gentlemen should be provided with an umbrella, and a

A WORD TO PARENTS.
I- ^^"^■Try to have your children here on the first day of the
term, but not before, as we shall not be ready to receive them.
The classes are formed on the second day, and it will be better
for all concerned that the student start regularly with his class.

2. If possible, do not call them away during the session.
Absence, if only for a few days, disarranges the class, and is
generally the beginning of irregularity on the part of the scholar.
3. ^ Do not allow your children to leave the School before the
examinations, unless it cannot be avoided. Serious inconvenience
to all concerned often arises from a neglect of this caution.
4. Supply them very sparingly with spending money. Parents
cannot be too cautious on this point.
5. Select for your child one of the instructors as a patron, to
distribute his funds. In this way a more judicious use of your
money will be made, and your child will be kept from many
temptations.
DAY STUDENTS.
Day Students will be required to observe the following rules :
1. Attend Chapel exercises when their recitations come at 8
or 9 o'clock A. M., unless excused by the President.
2. Spend the intervals between recitations in the Study Hall.
3. Present written excuse from parent or guardian for all
absences, time and number of recitations being specified.
4- Must not visit the rooms of boarders at any time without
permission.
5. The gentlemen must deposit ;^ i .00 with the Treasurer when
they enter, to cover damage done to Study Hall or other property.
This will be returned when the student leaves, but not before,
provided no injury has been done.

GRADUATES AND FORMER STUDENTS.
It may safely be estimated that from eight to ten thousand per-
sons have received Academic instruction, covering from one to
three years, in Williamsport Dickinson Seminary, while five hun-
dred ana seventy-seven have completed the prescribed curriculum,
grad I Kiting with the degrees the Institution confers. We desire
to !)! ing all these into active sympathy and co-operation with their
Alma Mater, and hence we ask all persons to whom this notice
may come, who have been students here, to send us their address,
with any information concerning their personal history that may
be of general interest, as we wish to compile a complete cata-
logue of all the students now living.
There is a general meeting of the Alumni every year, the day
before Commencement. We extend a most cordial invitation to
all old students to attend the meeting this year, which will be
held June 14, in the afternoon and evening. If you cannot come
let us hear from you by letter.
And now, may I not ask you to aid in enlarging the sphere and
increasing the power of our Alma Mater? You can do much in
many ways, but you can at least direct those looking for a good
Boarding School to ours, or send me their address on a postal
card. Carry the Seminary in your heart. She is doing a worthy
work, and earnestly asks her sons and daughters to help her.
MEANS OF ACCESS.
Williamsport is eight and a half hours from New York, six
hours from Philadelphia, nine hours from Pittsburg, six hours
from Baltimore, three hours from Harrisburg, and three hours
from Elmira, and is reached directly by the Pennsylvania, the
Philadelphia and Reading, the Northern Central and the Phila-
delphia and Erie railroads, which pass through the city, and as
these have connections directly with all the great railroads, is
readily accessible from all quarters.
